Pavement Parking (Protection of Vulnerable Pedestrians) Bill

Debate between James Berry and Bob Stewart

Friday 4th December 2015 Commons Chamber

[James Berry (Kingston and Surbiton) (Con)]

I thank my hon. Friend for introducing the Bill and all those, including my constituents in Kingston and Surbiton who have long campaigned for this measure—

[Bob Stewart]

It was Kingston that fined me.

[James Berry]

I know. I am glad to see my hon. Friend’s parking fines going towards reducing our council tax bills. Will my hon. Friend the Member for North Dorset (Simon Hoare) confirm that the Bill reaches a sensible accommodation between motorists and the long list of organisations he mentioned, and, more importantly, a localised accommodation that could, if done properly, be right for all areas of the country?
